About this project
What does Backport Mayhem add?
Backport Mayhem
Backport Mayhem is another backport mod but better. What Backport Mayhem can do is bring new stuff from the new versions into old versions like the Name Tag Recipe, Coppper Tools, The Creaking, and etc. This mod will get updated to old versions and maybe a port to Fabric but for now enjoy it in Forge for 1.20.1, also this mod will take time to make so be patient. One last thing this mod also adds back old recipes that got removed as best as I can to do so.

Questions I Feel Like People Will Ask

- Will their be a port to modrinth? YES, Hopefully By March
- Does this mod work with other backport mods? I Don't Know
- Will their be a datapack port? Most Likely Not
- Will this mod get ported to other mod loaders besides Fabric? It Depends

Just A Quick Note For Everyone
Just a quick note Backport Mayhem is different from other backport mods because Backport Mayhem tries to backport everything into one mod, unlike other backport mods that only do one thing like Backported Spears, Copper Age Backport, and Pale Garden Backport, unlike these mods that only backport one thing, Backport Mayhem tries to backport everything as accurate as possible into one mod for versions like 1.20.1 and other versions soon to come. Backport Mayhem also offers recipes that got removed from the game like Horse Armor and Enchanted Golden Apples. Note in the furture for this mod it will need Geckolib to work but as of now it does not need Geckolib.
